Automatic vehicle wash machines is what this article explains, based on real projects by GO&GO.
Buying wash equipment starts with one question: which vehicles do you need to clean, and how many per day? A machine that is perfect for a city motorbike shop is useless at a quarry gate, and a bus gantry is far too large for a petrol station forecourt. This guide maps the six standard GO&GO automatic vehicle wash systems to the businesses they were designed for, so you can shortlist the right one before asking for a quotation.
GO&GO is the brand of CDS Co., Ltd., a Vietnamese company founded in 2012 that has designed and manufactured automatic wash systems since 2014. According to the company, more than 500 systems are installed in Vietnam and abroad, and GO&GO equipment is present in markets including the UAE, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Cambodia, the Philippines, Uganda, Colombia and India.
Start with three questions
- Vehicle type. Motorbikes, cars and SUVs, buses and coaches, container trucks, or heavy construction vehicles each need a different machine geometry.
- Daily volume. A few dozen vehicles a day and several hundred a day lead to different designs (booth versus conveyor, gantry versus drive-through).
- Site and utilities. Available space, three-phase power and water supply often decide the choice before budget does.
The six GO&GO wash systems at a glance
| System | Vehicles | Time per vehicle | Rated capacity | EXW price (USD) |
| Automatic motorcycle wash (AMWM) | Motorbikes, scooters | 2 or 4 min | 100+ per day | 8,400 |
| Motorcycle tunnel wash (AMWC-CB) | Motorbikes, handlebar under 80 cm | About 1.5 min | Up to 400 per day | 16,500 |
| Helmet cleaning machine (HWM) | Motorcycle helmets | About 7–15 min | 2 chambers | 3,200 |
| Automatic car wash (ACWM) | Sedans, SUVs, MPVs (4–9 seats) | About 8 min | Up to 100 per day | 18,000 |
| Automatic bus wash (ABWM) | Buses and coaches, 16–47 seats | 7–10 min | 100+ per day | 30,000 |
| Construction wheel wash (ACOWM) | Trucks of 30–40 tonnes | 1–2 min | Around 200 per day | 18,000 |
Capacity figures are machine ratings, not sales forecasts. EXW (ex-works) prices exclude freight, import duties, local transport and site works.
Which system fits which business?
Car wash shops, detailing studios and garages
The ACWM rollover machine washes the car while it stays parked, with two side brushes, a roof brush, brush pressure sensors and automatic size detection. It needs an installation bay of about 12 × 5 m and three-phase 380V power. Touchless and combined brush/touchless versions can be built to order.
Motorbike wash points and small investors
The AMWM booth is the most accessible entry point: about 8 m² of machine on a 40–50 m² shop, 220V or 380V power, one operator, and two programs for city and muddy bikes. Many owners pair it with the helmet cleaning machine, which needs only about 2 m².
Fuel stations, parking sites and high-traffic locations
Where hundreds of motorbikes pass every day, the conveyor tunnel moves two to three bikes through the wash at the same time. For cars at fuel stations, the ACWM is the usual choice. GO&GO systems operate at more than 40 gas stations of Topline Group in the Philippines, according to the company website.
Bus and coach operators
The ABWM gantry travels along the vehicle with three brushes and detects vehicle size automatically. Options include underbody washing, automatic drying and an upgrade for container trucks. Vietnamese coach operators such as FUTA Bus Lines, Thanh Buoi, Sao Vang and Manh Ha are listed as GO&GO references.
Construction sites, mines and ports
The ACOWM is a drive-through wheel and underbody wash installed at the site exit. Photoelectric sensors switch the nozzles on and off, and an automatic sludge removal system collects mud. Can Tho Port and Vietnam’s national coal and mineral group are among the listed users.
Special vehicles
Beyond the standard range, the GO&GO R&D team designs custom systems, for example for garbage trucks, livestock transport vehicles, container trucks, trains and trams. These are engineered per project.
Common buyer concerns, answered
- “Will it work in my country?” Most machines run on 380V three-phase power at 50 or 60 Hz; the motorbike booth and helmet machine also accept 220V. Always confirm your local supply before ordering.
- “Who installs it?” Larger systems are installed on site by GO&GO technicians in 2–5 days depending on the model. Smaller units can ship assembled with online guidance.
- “What if it breaks?” Every system has a 12-month hardware warranty from installation, lifetime software support, and a dedicated WhatsApp technical group with engineers in Vietnam.
- “How fast can I get it?” Lead times range from about 30 days (motorbike booth) to 60 days (bus and construction systems) after deposit, plus shipping.
Frequently asked questions
Do the prices include shipping?
No. All GO&GO prices are EXW at the factory in Ho Chi Minh City. Most export buyers appoint their own forwarder; GO&GO supplies the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin.
Can one machine wash several vehicle types?
Partly. The bus gantry can be upgraded to wash container trucks, and the car machine adapts to different car sizes. Motorbikes, cars and heavy trucks still need separate systems.
Can I see a machine working before I order?
Yes. You can book a live video call with the factory, and car wash buyers can arrange a test wash at the workshop in Ho Chi Minh City.
Do you work with distributors?
Yes. GO&GO works with international distribution partners. Territory terms, including any exclusivity, depend on qualification and a signed agreement.
